- Saturday.

Wildfires are decimating Hawaii.

The Barbenheimer phenomenon is in full force.

And over in an unassuming corner of cyberspace, someone creates a YouTube channel with an urgent call to action.

- This matter is of utmost significance for the survival of every living being on this planet.

- It's called the Earth Save Science Collaborative, and it's hosted by a man named Allen Egon Cholakian.

On his channel, we can find over 180 videos of this man warning people about global issues, like climate change, nano plastics, and disinformation campaigns.

Admittedly, while these are all issues that are plaguing the world, the way Egon is framing them is a bit odd.

In every single one of his videos, he sits in front of a camera dressed in a suit, goes on about his various accolades, and spends anywhere from around 30 minutes to three and a half hours, fear mongering about things like geophysical anomalies inside the Earth's core, that, upon doing further research, appear to have little to no basis in scientific fact.

According to Egon, if humanity doesn't unite to solve this global threat, then the end of the world is quite literally just a few years away.

On his website, earthsavesciencecollaborative.com, we can find a section that gives us insight into his cause.

And at a cursory glance, we can notice a plethora of colorful phrasing formatted in bold for dramatic effect.

Egon claims that there are alarming anomalies.

There's a chaotic acceleration of the planet's rotation, that humanity only has a few years to avert an impending catastrophe.

And upon taking a look at their scientific papers, he makes bizarre claims about an external and unknown cosmic force that's causing all of this.

Now, to me, this entire movement comes off as conspiratorial.

Egon, in my opinion, consistently instills urgency in the reader, distorts science-backed evidence to fit his narrative, and given that he appears to be someone so ingrained in academia and the government is feigning credibility while banking on the hope that you won't ever verify his claims.

But, okay, okay, so we found a channel on YouTube with a random old guy that uploads crazy videos about an impending calamity that could happen in as little as years.

Why exactly are we giving this guy attention?

And what truly is the big deal here?

Well, while in any other circumstance, I would've moved on before this video even started, there was one simple thing that kept me here, his hands.

Online, people have noticed that in certain videos, Egon doesn't move.

And while it's such a simple, silly observation, it's effectively morphed what was supposed to be just a random internet anomaly, into one of the strangest and most perplexing internet rabbit holes that I have ever seen.

- We'll return after these messages.

- All right guys, before we continue, just a quick story time.

All right, so as you guys may know, my wife and I had our baby girl in December, and we found ourselves faced with something we weren't quite prepared for, finding her a doctor.

Not only that, but a good one, in-network, nearby, and with availability within the first month.

It is insane how many variables go into simply booking a doctor's appointment.

That combined with the sleepless nights we were going through during that time period really made for an unnecessarily stressful process.

"Government AI-generated fake YouTubers are now a thing, "and they're super scary." "Hi, guys.

"Recently, I found a video on YouTube "about Destiny doing some research and some weird things, "and one thing caught my attention.

"This dude named Egon Cholakian is supposed to be a person "with a lot of influence in the US government, "but he never existed, "and everything about him is just odd or weird in some way.

"He has a YouTube channel "in which he only speaks directly to a camera, speaks a bunch of nonsense about geopolitical stuff, "and does not move.

"I'm being serious, "this guy sits for three hours without moving his hands." All across the internet, we can find him.

On LinkedIn, Facebook, research archives, and photographed with countless major public figures in governments and academia.

Egon, according to his Facebook and LinkedIn profiles, carries a highly decorated resume, having studied at numerous prestigious institutions like Harvard, MIT, and Stanford.

And while this looks impressive, he notes that he somehow attended these universities at the exact same time.

Now, as we know, anyone can put anything on a LinkedIn profile.

And given that his accolades are so incredibly out there, it's possible that some, if not all of his social media claims are bogus.

On top of this, if we perform a search for Egon Cholakian on the internet, we'll find that hardly any of his actual research comes up.

For someone so ingrained, so well networked, you would think that this man's work would be everywhere.

But aside from his own profiles, paid articles he himself submitted to the press, and videos from his YouTube channel, little, if anything, is out there.

It seems that all we have are a myriad of images depicting Egon with public figures.

However, upon looking at them closer, even these seem strangely uncanny.

He can be seen photographed with former CIA director, Stansfield Turner, but it looks, hmm.

This one's with a Harvard colleague named Robert Merton, but what's going on here?

Okay, okay, what about this one?

This one looks normal, but no.

Hold on. Egon Cholakian has fabricated a massive network of images, depicting endless aspects of his life that never happened.

This is why he's garnered such an infamous reputation.

The bizarre, nonsensical LinkedIn timeline, the unnatural ability to sit still for over three hours at a time while professing absolute nonsense in the photos.

His entire online presence rests in the uncanny valley.

And given how proficient AI has become at spoofing entire personalities online, this left many across the internet wondering if this could be what's going on here.

Is Egon Cholakian, proficient researcher, world-renowned scientist, and highly decorated alumnus of numerous prestigious universities, even a real person, or is this one of the most involved examples of the Dead Internet Theory that we've ever seen?

On Egon's channel, exists a documentary called "The Impact." And in it, we can hear an AI George Washington calling the audience to action against a so-called foreign enemy.

It goes on to fearmonger about impending civil war, so-called anti-cult organizations that oppose him.

And it puts forth various potential scenarios about the end of the world.

It is, for all intents and purposes, complete AI slop.

And weirdest of all, it goes on for eight entire hours.

If you click around this video, you will learn nothing.

It's just a bunch of random propaganda wrapped up in vernacular that simply goes on in circles.

Yet even so, surprisingly, this video has found an audience.

"Thank you to all that stood up "to protect our constitution and our rights." "Yeah, by the way, it's so nice to see actual journalism for a change." "You all didn't have the complete story.

"The rabbit hole goes much deeper." This, this is eight hours long.

And you're saying we don't have the complete story?

What? So, I'll just go forth and say it.

I refuse to believe that anyone on planet Earth has had the willpower to sit down and attentively watch all eight hours of this, much less considerate journalism.

As we can see, these comments all come from those with randomized usernames, empty YouTube channels, not a single profile picture.

It appears that the only ones here are bots, a revelation that does not help Egon's case.

- We're going a little bit deeper, okay?

In chat, somebody brings up a YouTube video of this guy.

- Hello, my name is Egon Cholakian.

I am an intelligence educator.

I prepare intelligence personnel for clandestine service.

The focus of my career has been centered on the intelligence component of nationals.

- As this mystery made its way across the internet, thanks to a live stream by Destiny, it led many to scour for traces of him online.

It quickly became clear that nearly all media involving Egon Cholakian involved him speaking in front of a camera.

His entire image was incredibly manicured, overproduced, and for a while, it seemed like there was nothing out there that can truly humanize him.

But right when people were keen on throwing this entire mystery away as just another case of AI-generated nonsense, a random pandemic era video depicting a Zoom call of all things found its way into the spotlight.

- Hey there, Egon.

- How you doing?

- Well, how about yourself?

- Just peachy.

I figured I'd step in early and just hang my hat.

- Awesome, fabulous.

We have some people that are just kind of hanging out here.

The judges are deliberating.

The pitches took a little bit less time than we had planned for since we had- - And so, there we have it.

Egon is just peachy, and he's a real person.

100

Turns out that this guy pulled a Stephen McDaniel, and somehow sat still for three and a half hours, which is weird, but okay.

101

So that's all this is then, right?

102

A conspiracy theory YouTube channel run by an old man doctoring photos of himself and over-embellishing his achievements to make him seem more legitimate than he is.

103

Someone who admittedly seems pretty nice according to this call.

104

And someone who found himself ensnared in an online conspiracy about his very existence, completely out of nowhere.

105

You know, the reason I do what I do is because of mysteries just like this.

106

Creepy internet anomalies that we can investigate and solve with a logical conclusion.

107

Egon has fabricated an entire online persona, and admittedly, it was an engaging investigation.

108

So thank you guys so much for watching, watch it, watch it, watch it- Something is wrong.

109

All throughout Egon's comment section, we'll notice the same commenter spread out across his uploads.

110

And upon taking a look.

111

Interesting.

112

What's going on with this?

113

- Representatives of The Creative Society delivered a substantive presentation addressing one of the most pressing issues that has long been the subject of my research and concern for many years.

114

- Weird, but okay.

115

What the hell's The Creative Society?

116

There it is again.

117

Okay, I'm not trying to be tinfoil hatty, but there are way too many oddities taking place with this channel.

118

Every single comment supports Egon.

119

They seem to heavily lean Russian.

120

They all connect in some way to something called Creative Society.

121

And upon closer inspection, why is Egon on their website?

122

From what it seems, Egon Cholakian isn't just a one-man show.

123

It's a group.

124

So, who in the world are these people?

125

- Here's a typical morning routine as someone who owns 11 pets.

126

- Okay, I've been making this brown sugar mocha dalgona lately and Nescafe is helping me.

127

- November 7th, 155 miles per hour winds just wiped out 80% of the city.

128

- It is what all people want.

129

We've been conducting a lot of surveys for several years.

130

- No day without informing about Creative Society.

131

- It is not some saintly call.

132

The Creative Society is all of humanity.

133

And when I say all, it means all.

134

- Making its way onto every social media algorithm across the vast ocean of the internet is an idea.

135

An idea that on the surface sounds idyllic.

136

The sort of thing you'd hear in, let's say, a dream.

137

The long awaited arrival of a future we were promised, yet never came, and one that'll radically transform the lives of everyone that chooses to follow it.

138

It goes by The Creative Society, and it's spilling out onto TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, really anywhere with an audience online.

139

Take a look around, and chances are you'll find it.

140

Front and center on their website, we're greeted with oddly familiar dialogue.

141

"Today, as the global community faces an increasing threat "of natural disasters, "the pursuit of security and sustainability "has become fundamental for everyone.

142

"This situation requires "immediate and decisive collective action." Just like the Earth Save Science Collaborative, we're confronted with the conveyor belts of ideas, videos, and scientific reports that scaremonger about many of the same problems that Egon told us about earlier.

143

Nano plastics, catastrophic earthquakes, an increase in turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere.

144

It honestly sounds like a complete rehash of the exact same information.

145

So much so that when I was digging through this, I found myself wondering why they even bothered creating another site at all.

146

Upon heading over to their About page, we're given somewhat of an answer, as the site goes from a retread of familiar information, to something completely out of left field.

147

According to the wall of information before us, The Creative Society is more than just a bunch of scientists peddling dramatic theories about climate change.

148

It's an international project, uniting volunteers from over 180 countries, a.k.a. most of the world, with the goal of transitioning in a legal and peaceful way within the shortest possible time to a new creative format of society worldwide.

149

Further down, they go on to reveal that their aims include eradicating climate change, which they believe is caused not by humans, but cosmic forces, as well as miraculously putting an end to all wars.

150

They guarantee that under this new system, all adults will receive a universal basic income every month and an extra $100,000 upon the birth of their first child.

151

Free healthcare will exist across the world.

152

Travel without restrictions.

153

The eradication of all debts, mortgages, and taxes.

154

And all of this can be achieved if we simply follow their lead and unite under The Creative Society.

155

Now, this clearly all sounds way too good to be true.

156

Much like how Egon came off, it feels completely outlandish and conspiratorial.

157

To be honest, it feels like The Creative Society has more in common with something like a religion or perhaps even.

158

- My neighbor in my house, like just if I'm facing out the guy to my left, he is a cult leader.

159

He has this cult called The Creative Society.

160

- Shut up. - I swear to God. - Whoa, what did they do?

161

- They're like a doomsday, kind of like a, they're a doomsday cult, but they're like eco-doomsday.

162

So they think that we're in the end of humanity and the only way to bring us out of it is like through their method of creativity.

163

- The concept of a new world order, a list of eight pillars that their values are based around, the weird Illuminati-looking logo.

164

All of this is packaged exactly like a cult.

165

And although it seems obvious in hindsight, if you had merely stumbled upon it when scrolling online, you likely wouldn't even second-guess it.

166

This entire organization looks authentic.

167

It pulls you in with its lengthy, seemingly well-researched reports and videos on important topics, led by experts who look legitimate.

168

And it promises of a perfect world where you can be free if only you spread their message.

169

And somehow, it's actually working.

170

Plastered all over their website are image, after image, after image, depicting everyday people posing with Creative Society paraphernalia.

171

From what it seems, this group is utilizing their appearance to wiggle their way into various climate expos, US-based business conventions, and even medical offices.

172

This, combined with their immensely aggressive social media presence, in which their videos are spammed on nearly every platform you can think of, gives insight into why so many around the world have found their cause.

173

Like with everything else, they carry the appearance of doing a net good for the world.

174

However, as I sit here writing this, I am honestly more confused than ever because quite literally none of this makes any sense.

175

So, so far, we've seen two interconnected climate activist groups that are very clearly peddling more than they've let on.

176

Doing any sort of surface level research into any of them reveals that their claims are extraordinary.

177

They've distort science, fabricate their credibility, and even on The Creative Society's website, they go on about a utopian new world order.

178

Either none of these people are doing any research into the organizations they're so outwardly supporting, or they are, and I'm just the crazy one that doesn't see their vision.

179

To me, the entire existence and support of The Creative Society is one massive paradox.

180

People should be writing them off.

181

So, what really is going on here?

182

Upon scouring the net for any information about this group, I happened upon an article written in 2022 on bbc.com, penned by two climate disinformation reporters named Marco Silva and Merlyn Thomas.

183

They dive into, of all things, how The Creative Society is fraudulent.

184

They explain how several high profile scientists were, at one point, invited to speak at their online events, mistakenly believing that they'd be educating the public, only to have their words entirely twisted.

185

They claim that video footage was edited to remove any mention of the human causes of climate change, instead framing them as if they agreed with The Creative Society's outlandish views.

186

Since then, these fraudulent videos have been blasted across their socials, fueling propaganda, and continuing to attract more and more of the general populace to their cause.

187

It's clear that this toxic combination of distortion and dissemination is what's quietly elevating them to prominence.

188

But even still, there's a question brimming in the back of my mind.

189

Who exactly is behind all of this?

190

On their website, The Creative Society simply states that there's no one person funding or directing them.

191

It's all just this undulating network of volunteers banding together to change humanity.

192

However, it's when we scour the BBC article, one will find that that isn't exactly true.

193

Within it, they name drop a man, someone who's been affiliated with The Creative Society and shows up throughout the bulk of their online presence.

194

In fact, it's a man who you've already seen several times throughout this video, hosting their conferences, introducing their YouTube videos, speaking on their network of over 200 channels across thousands of videos.

195

He doesn't exactly hide himself, but he remains just distant and unfamiliar enough to the average person to not arouse suspicion, and to coordinate things from behind the scenes.

196

His name is Igor Mikhailovich Danilov, formerly a chiropractor, now the leader of The Creative Society, and someone who's also listed as the leading figure in a Ukrainian spiritual movement, which, hold on.

197

AllatRa is known for promoting pseudoscience and wild conspiracy theories involving aliens and secretive, powerful elites that sacrifice children.

198

Okay, that is an absolutely insane statement, but that name, we've seen that name before.

199

Right under our nose, a group has been operating.

200

And upon digging into them further and cross-referencing them with the Earth Save Science Collaborative and The Creative Society, it's become clear to me that everything we've covered up to this point was nothing but a front, a funnel to the real core of this rabbit hole, AllatRa.

201

Hidden within every climate report and embedded in every viral video are endless references to something called AllatRa, an organization which, as it turns out, has much deeper and more expansive roots than anything we've seen so far.

202

They're the ones behind The Creative Society project.

203

The ones paying Egon Cholakian to lobby in the US government.

204

The true puppet master behind this sprawling network of interconnected accounts that are quietly taking over the internet.

205

While up to this point, we've seen the prior groups spreading misinformation and outlandish ideas.

206

What AllatRa truly believes at their core is so far out there, so off the rails that I struggle to comprehend how they've ever been taken seriously.

207

According to the videos on their vast network of YouTube channels, they sincerely believe that humans are capable of telepathy, and have conducted several experiments using a walk-in pyramid, where volunteers transmit symbols with their minds in front of a live audience.

208

They have videos showing members taking photographs of their thoughts, infographics about the soul coming from space, even podcast appearances where they talk about aliens living among us.

209

- Considering the level of their development, the Apexians had already colonized millions and millions of planets by that time.

210

And naturally, they had developed methods of working with humanoids like us, right?

211

So they took the simplest option, they elevated themselves to the rank of God.

212

- Naturally, on their website, they mentioned none of this.

213

Instead describing themselves with a familiar spiel we know all too well by now.

214

Volunteers across 180 countries, nano plastics, the usual.

215

It's when we take a look at their About page though, when we're able to spot something strange.

216

Taking up nearly half of this page is a massive section about a supposed defamation campaign enacted upon AllatRa by a group called the Russian Association of Centers for Religious Insect Studies, or RACIRS for short.

217

AllatRa claims that this group sought to tarnish its image by accusing them of believing in ideologies laid out in so-called fiction books that they once published.

218

Furthermore, they go on to claim that they are absolutely not an apocalyptic cult, and that all rhetoric supporting this is intentionally trying to discredit them.

219

You know, it's funny they say that because we kind of already had an idea.

220

If the alien beliefs in weird telepathic experiments weren't enough to give it away, then them outright claiming that they're not a cult, guys, they are not a cult, is a bit of a dead giveaway.

221

But, I digress.

222

With this in mind, I did some digging into AllatRa itself, and stumbled upon a trove of information about their early years.

223

I know I sound like a broken record when I say this, but even with everything we've seen them peddle so far, things still get stranger.

224

In their early years, AllatRa was born as nothing more than a publishing house, releasing novels penned by an author named Anastasia Novykh.

225

These books are highly spiritual, and feature a being named Rigden Djappo, who's a sort of prophet for AllatRa.

226

Supposedly, he's been reincarnated.

227

He can teleports, read minds, and displays numerous other superhuman abilities.

228

Exactly the kind that they're trying to replicate in the pyramid videos.

229

In essence, he's their version of Jesus, and some of the books even read like religious texts containing conversations between Djappo and Novykh, where he relays the word of their God, a disembodied voice named Allat to the reader.

230

The most interesting part about Djappo though, has nothing to do with his supernatural behavior, but rather, his job.

231

In their very first book, dating way back to 2003, he's introduced in his earthly form as a martial arts teacher in it.

232

Well, would you look at that?

233

A chiropractor.

234

His students call him Sensei, but on more than one occasion, he is directly referred to by the name, Igor Mikhailovich.

235

While AllatRa may have passed these books off as mere works of fiction, the inclusion of Igor Danilov is very real.

236

This man to this day is convincing thousands to follow him.

237

He professes the ideas baked into these novels in his troves of YouTube videos and on every AllatRa website.

238

And he convinces humans that they're capable of doing things that are physically impossible.

239

At this point, we've transcended the realm of pseudoscience and societal manipulation because this man, Igor Danilov, is trying to be a prophet.

240

A warped, twisted, and disturbed prophet, leveraging his power behind the scenes to not only control people, but to enact some of the most disgusting acts imaginable.

241

- The video you're currently watching is an interview between a Russian journalist named Alena Namlieva and one of Igor Danilov's former so-called heavenly birds.

242

In fear of retaliation, her identity has been concealed.

243

However, the information she provides gives us an eerie look into his other ventures.

244

In this interview, the woman explains that Igor, joined by other cult members, would regularly partake in group intercourse with upwards of 13 women at a time.

245

These women, as far as she knew, ranged anywhere from 20 to 40 years in age, and these acts were supposedly meant to cleanse their spirit.

246

Igor Danilov, being the group's prophet, would utilize his power to coerce them into participating.

247

And if they refused, resisted, or told anyone about what was happening behind closed doors, then he would convince them that their soul is all but damned to hell.

248

"You're either with us and remain silent, "or are against us and are siding with Satan," he would claim, an unthinkable form of psychological manipulation that has kept women silent, obedient, and entangled in Danilov's web for years.

249

As details about Danilov's actions trickled out over the years, investigations into AllatRa began to ramp up.

250

In 2023, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church allegedly became so concerned about this group that they labeled them a psychocult, while simultaneously, Russia also declared their activities undesirable.

251

Their controversial beliefs, psychological manipulation, and coercion, and worshiping their leader as if he was some kind of Messiah were starting to cause concern.

252

And with the member base growing day by day, AllatRa was rapidly morphing from the appearance of an innocent climate-focused organization into a legitimate global threat.

253

In August of that year, Ukrainian forces organized a series of raids on the homes of AllatRa's key members.

254

They scoured Ukraine from top to bottom, and followed every lead they had, no matter how insignificant.

255

More than 20 cells were broken up, yet surprisingly, Danilov was nowhere to be seen.

256

While the case though, they weren't entirely empty-handed, as what they found instead was so unexpected, so completely out of left field that it turns this entire movement on its head.

257

Inside one of their compounds, Ukrainian authorities uncovered an array of weapons, religious texts, and...

258

A myriad of blurred red objects.

259

Interesting.

260

Well, good thing there's a video.

261

So, let's see.

262

All throughout this compound are not only shrines dedicated to Vladimir Putin, but Trump hats everywhere.

263

This is why they're creating account after account, specializing in nearly every country in the world to spread their message.

264

This is why they're paying Egon Cholakian to cozy up to any major governmental figure he can.

265

This is why they've spread to California and have launched a trendy new YouTube channel for a fresh American audience.

266

These people will not stop their efforts until they land someone inside the White House and beyond.

267

And you wouldn't believe in, but they're well on their way there.

268

- I am running for President of the United States of America to give power back to the people and build a Creative Society worldwide.

269

- It turns out that former football coach and presidential candidate, Robby Wells, has been associated with AllatRa and The Creative Society since 2019.

270

Running for office, circulating the same rhetoric about a universal basic income, using every social media account to deliver pro-AllatRa, pro-Putin conspiracies to his followers.

271

Pastor Mark Burns, the man who just helped erect the golden statue of Trump, also has video after video spamming every one of his socials supporting AllatRa's cause.

272

And most insane of all, even the Pope has given AllatRa his blessing, something they make absolutely sure to boast about on their website.

273

These activities, these attempts at gaining access to major governments across the world are happening right under our nose.

274

And no one, besides a handful of people dedicated to following Egon's trail are talking about any of this.

275

- Hello, Clara.

276

- Allow me to introduce you to Jakub Jahl, a journalist, YouTuber, and qualified expert in cults, dedicating his life's work to exposing them, and the plethora of sophisticated techniques they use to manipulate their followers.

277

He's also a humanitarian, having spent numerous years volunteering in Africa, traveling to communities like the town of Moshi, Tanzania, where he helped to provide education and support to people in less privileged situations than his own or at least, that's what he says he does.

278

Scattered across YouTube are numerous, near identical documentaries that provide a much more sinister look into Jakub's supposed activities in Tanzania.

279

"Satanist in Africa." "From charity to child abuse." "The victims told the truth." "Why is Jakub Jahl still free?" These productions span hours, and appear to be entirely legitimate documentaries.

280

They're presented by verifiable hosts, who have taken to the streets of Moshi to interview locals who'd like to expose the truth.

281

That Jakub Jahl is a liar, a deviant, and that he secretly and covertly conducted an undercover operation to abuse and brainwash children in Africa.

282

This case is so disturbing, so repulsive, that all over TikTok to this day are hundreds upon hundreds of videos spreading the word about this monster that has seemingly been hiding under the radar for years.

283

- This horrible human being who abused kids in Tanzania.

284

His name is Jakub Jahl.

285

He is from Czech Republic.

286

He came to Tanzania.

287

- Just take a look what this predator, Jakub Jahl, who African kids is saying.

288

- Jakub Jahl raised thousands of euros claiming it was to help children in Tanzania.

289

And then he used this money to brutally abuse them.

290

- This account, oli.climate.girl, is one of hundreds spreading the Jakub Jahl story, which is fine.

291

It's good to get the word out.

292

The part that isn't fine though is that this very account has already shown up in this video.

293

Jakub Jahl never did any of this.

294

The documentaries, completely fabricated.

295

The endless support of them, entirely manufactured.

296

Every bit of information we've learned about Jakub up to this point has been nothing but what AllatRa wants us to know about him, because just a few years ago, Jakub did something to absolutely enrage them.

297

In 2023, Jakub Jahl was one of a number of Czech journalists working to expose AllatRa's activities.

298

Turns out that he was instrumental in locating one of Igor Danilov's hideouts.

299

And because of his meddling, he's now facing a coordinated smear campaign, essentially painting him as the devil.

300

Unfortunately, it's difficult to parse who exactly is connected to AllatRa and who isn't when it comes to their comment sections.

301

They've amassed hundreds of them across their various uploads, and the overall sentiment ranges from unapologetic support to cautious skepticism.

302

From what it seems, this massive psyop they're pushing is working in some capacity, as it's even caused the Czech government themselves to step in and investigate Jakub for these claims.

303

It took years before he was exonerated.

304

And while today he's thankful for it, the mental toll it took on him, combined with the internet's collective outrage about him doing things he never would've even imagined doing, all of it had unfortunately put him in an extremely dark place.

305

- Hello, this is Pastor Mark Burns, spiritual advisor of the President of Donald Trump.

306

And I want to tell you, I'm here in the Tanzania Embassy right now, just had a wonderful productive meeting.

307

Jakub or Jakub is not going to get away with the evil and the atrocities that has been done to these children.

308

So, let's continue to pray.

309

Let's continue to fight.

310

And let's continue to tell the world that justice is coming, Jakub.

311

You won't get away with this.

312

- To this day, if you look up Jakub Jahl on any search engine or social media platform, you'll find video after video painting him out to be a monster.

313

It is an absolute travesty, and that's exactly how AllatRa wants it.

314

- It's interesting.

315

I don't know if you know, but this summer holidays, AllatRa is again visiting Tanzania.

316

They're going there with like 20 volunteers for two weeks.

317

And you know why they do it?

318

Because the children we were helping, they discovered all their orphanages, and now they're getting into that orphanages.

319

Of course, when they give those people money, you know, of course, they will take it and they will be happy.

320

So now, they're going there and visiting those children we cared for for years.

321

And they're visiting them and they will try turning them into this AllatRa member in the future, you know?

322

They have like this whole campaign.

323

And that's the real torture thing, you know? - Right.

324

- Because they can't hurt me with lies when I know it's a lie, you know?

325

But they can hurt me with those children.

326

We helped them medically, we put them in school.

327

And now, they go there.

328

You know, now they made all those people crazy.

329

You know, they're spreading those things.

330

So, I can't visit Tanzania anymore.

331

I can never visit them again, the children.

332

Nor any of the volunteers who like traveled there with a bunch of people for years.

333

We care for all of them.

334

No one can visit them anymore.

335

And all of those children are getting indoctrinated into AllatRa cult now.

336

- Now that you're saying that, I had never considered that as one of the negative effects that AllatRa has had on people.

337

That, I will say, is probably one of the most grim out of everything.

338

And I never knew that.

339

So, thank you for bringing that up because I want more people to know about this.

340

- Yeah, so that's like the real thing that's hurting me.

341

That's the only thing I can't like be laughing about.

342

But the other things that they, okay, so they will kill me somewhere, you know?

343

There's like something I can laugh about because I don't care so much anymore when I know that it's much more important to fight against them.

344

But this is something that hurts me.

345

And I also feel guilty because if I would not visit those children, and would not investigate cults, they would not be indoctrinated by this crazy cult that's now targeting them.

346

- At the end of all of this, I'm simply left feeling shocked.

347

Shocked at the fact that something so random, so minuscule, a simple live stream by Destiny, and a Reddit post to accompany it could morph into something so far from where we started.

348

This entire time, Egon Cholakian has been nothing but a cog in a much greater machine, a fraud in so many aspects of this life.

349

AllatRa to this day is operating around the world, and is doing everything they can to entangle themselves in world governments to further their cause.

350

Like with Robby Wells and Mark Burns, their strategies have been undeniably effective.

351

However, I believe that shining a spotlight on groups like this can truly help prevent them from weaseling their way into where they don't belong.

352

What they've unleashed upon Jakub Jahl and the handful of other journalists that have exposed them is cruel and inhumane.

353

And it reveals to me just how effective the internet can be at swaying public opinion.

354

If you had never watched this video and had randomly stumbled upon Jakub's story, I wouldn't fault you for believing everything that AllatRa's been peddling.

355

I wouldn't fault you for believing their climate disaster reports, considering the changes our planet's seen in the past few decades.

356

And I wouldn't fault you for giving these people credibility given the seemingly endless images and videos depicting them with powerful figures.

357

While Igor Danilov to this day remains at large, his group continues to operate in capacities that I still don't fully understand.

358

Who knows how many women are still under his grasp, worshiping him as something he isn't, coerced into satisfying him whenever he demands it, and being tormented into an agonizing silence.

359

I can only hope that someday they wake up and realize how fraudulent everything about AllatRa truly is.

360

- They use a different strategy, you know?

361

In the past, they used young women who were lured into the cult.

362

Now they use women who, young women who are daughters of couples who are already members.

363

So it's more like a prestige thing that the couples, the parents are like offering their young daughter to Igor, you know, to be a Heavenly Bird.

364

They transformed it and thus, they can be sure that the parents will not start an anti-cult or anti-AllatRa like campaign, you know?

365

So, that's one of the main things what they changed.

366

Also, I think now they could not bear a Heavenly Bird to run away.

367

So, I think like honestly that if a woman would want to run away, they would just bury her in the lake, you know?

368

Like the lake where they are is like famous for being like they find every half year, they find someone who was killed and buried in that lake, you know?

369

It's like very famous.

370

So it's not like a difficult way, you know, and place to do that.

371

But I'm sure they're manipulating them heavily.

372

And they have much more of them now.

373

They have 24 of those women now, you know?

374

And I don't know if you remember the stories quite though-

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
